have required almost superhuman

to touch the block Of Carrara with our

surprise to find that the enormous
mass weighed less than a bundle Of

Success in dairying depends upon

and q steady application Of brains to

One great advantage which the
creamery has over the dairy is the fact
that rs soon as the milk or cream
reaches the creamery it is in charge Of
skillful workmen, who know how TO
manage so as to secure the best results.
There is no hsp-hazard work about the
creamery. The clock, thermometer and
scales are used at every turn.
Even il chemical analysis should
determine with extreme nicely the per

CARE OF YOUNG STOCK.
The Importance OF Securing = Good Sta
In Dairy Animals.

The Importance Of Securing = Good Start
In Dairy Animals.
No matter how careful we may be In
the selection and mating Of the breed
ing stock, with the view Of grading up,
it is important that sufficient care
should be taken in feeding and atten-
ton, so that good start to grow may
be secured. A failure to do SO is GER
tain to fail to give us such results as
are the most desirable.
Good feed and care are very essential,
and II we fail to give these, our care in
selecting and breeding will avail but lit
tie; and consider it of little value to
secure high priced stock for breeding
purposes, and spend the time to prop
erly mate and breed unless, at the
same time. we are willing to take the
necessary pains to feed so that good
strong growth can be secured, and it is
necessary that this should be done from
the stock are four or five months old to
begin; this plan is the loss of that much
time that ought to be saved. OF course,
when the stock is SO young that they
can not eat we must feed them through
the mother. Nutritious milk is the best
food we can possibly give young stock,
and this can best be secured by giving
the mother good nutritious food and
plenty Of it and to give it regular. 1t
Is easy to secure good start to grow
from, hn ofart ~
taken; or. on the other hand, it is COM
paratively easy to stunt when small by
a failure to feed properly.
No matter how much extra feed and
care we may afterward give. if we fail
to secure good start to grow when
the stock is very small. no amount of
after growth will fully make up for
what was lost at the start. Selecting
and breeding are important and are
really necessary to secure the very best
results. Feed and caro- are equally i'm
portant. Each is dependent upon each
other, and failure to give either will
affect the growth Of the stock, and
in this directly affect the profit.
! The largest profits can only be
secured by giving considerable care
to all these essentials, and If we
give one without the other we are
certain to fail to secure the most profit.
We can take common scrub stock, and
by keeping the breeders in good.
| thrifty condition. so that the young
stock can secure good start to grow,
and secure a very good growth, and
realize fair profit, or we can take the
very best blooded stock, failing to feed
properly either when breeding or suck
ling, and fail to secure any profit what
| ever. 1t is certain to me that while
with good stock we may make it easier
to secure rapid growth, yet it is just
as important to secure this growth by
giving the necessary feed and care with
good stock as with poor. and to rely
simply upon the blood in the stock to
make the growth, whether the proper
feed is given or not, is certain to prove
a mistake. l am firm Deliver in good
stock, and try to keep nothing but what
is good, but at the same time l recog-
nize the fact that if secure the best
profit good growth must be secured,
and this can only be done by giving
| good feed and care.--N J. Shepherd, IL,

Buslness-like onsr.

For many years the manufacturers of DR..
Sage's Catarrh Remedy have offered, in
good faith, $500 reward for case of Nasal
Catarrh which they can not cure. The
Remedy is sold by druggists at only so cents.
This wonderful remedy has fairly attained
q worldwide reputation. II you have dull,
heavy headache, obstruction Of the nasal
passages, discharges falling from the head
into the throat, sometimes profuse, watery,
and acrid, at others, thick, tenacious, mu-
cous, purulent, bloody and .putrid; II the
eyes are weak, watery and infiamed; il
there is ringing in the ears, deafness, hack
ing or coughing to clear the throat, expec-
toration Of offensive matter, together with
scabs from ulcers; the voics being changed
and has q nasal twang; the breath Offensive
smell and taste impaired; sensation Of dizzi-
ness, with mental depression, hacking
cough and general debility, you are suffer
ing from nasal catarrh. The more compli-
Gated your disease, tho greater the number
and diversity of symptoms. Thousands OF
eases annually, without manifesting half Of
the above symptoms, result in consumption,
and end in the grave. No disease is SO com
mon, moro deceptive and dangerous, or less
understood, or more unsuccessfully treated
by physicians.

CARE OF CHEESE.
Dealers and Caterers Who Do Not Know
How to Handle 1t.

Dealers and Caterers Who Do Not Know
How to Handle 1t.
Why don't we have better cheese to
eat than we generally find offered for
sale in provision stores and find on
public tablesp Partly because a huge
amount Of poor cheese is still made; but
largely because so many of the retail
dealers do not know how and what to
buy, and do not know how to take care
Of it and expose it for sale after they
get it. 1t is the same with many of the
caterers and consumers. Probably nine
tenths of the cooks, caterers and con-
sumers Of cheese do not know that
cheese needs to be cared for before and
after it is cut just as certainly and
carefully as they know butter must be
cared for; but think that piece Of
cheese needs no more care than piece
Of marble would. The fact is that
cheese in warm atmosphere, say that
comfortable for person to sit in. is
undergoing changes that will soon
make it sharp. and unfit for any but
depraved taste. Some will say they
like old. and sharp cheese; but it is
noticeable that though they may say so.
that very small piece suffices for
them to nibble ct. They like it az
they may like pepper-in small doses;
while the sweet, firm. mellow and
moist cheese will be eaten by the large
slice and no bad report comes from the
stomach thercfor
Never buy piece Of sharp cheese
for family use; and after buying that
which is sweet, keep 1t as rigidly from
the air, and from exposure to heat and
light, as you do butter. The dealers
who retail. il they can sell no other,
will soon learn to buy and how 70
keep only that which they can sell
again. The dealers should be taught
| the same lesson the butchers know--to
keep that only which the people will
| buy. II man don't ''hanker'' for a
| piece Of the cheese he buys, he may be
sure he will waste 1t II he pays for il
| and takes it home. - Hoard Doirypd,s.
